Mike Nisbet

Dentist
BDS Edin. 1982
GDC No. 56496

Mike Nisbet is one of Queen's Driveâ€™s most well established and highly esteemed dentists, who has looked after patients here for many years.

With the aim of providing the best quality of service for his patient, mike has always ensured that he keeps up to date with all of the latest advancements in dentistry and that he uses the most up to date techniques and materials.

Most of his patients will be aware that Mike is a car enthusiast as well as focussed on keeping fit. So when heâ€™s not in the surgery youâ€™re likely to find him in the gym or at the racing circuit putting his car through its paces.

Mike says:

â€œI joined the practice in 1982, straight after qualifying from Edinburgh Dental School. At the time I felt (and still feel) fortunate to have been chosen to be Glen Heavenorâ€™s trainee in what was then (and remains) one of the most advanced practices in Scotland. It has always been at the forefront of new processes and technologies, but also has a reputation for treatment aimed at providing long term care, not a short term fix.

Itâ€™s been a real privilege to have been able to work in this practice for my whole career, so that I have been able to treat the same patients over many years and then treat their children and (I can hardly believe it) their grandchildren. Honestly Iâ€™m not that old- these folk were married young!

Of course the practice, and I, have evolved and developed over the years that I have been here â€“ but every change has always been made with the interest of the patients in mind. And I am confident that our quality of service and genuine interest in the welfare of our patients will continue to be a defining feature of the practice for many years to come.â€
